Door Open Alarm (fridge door only)
Alarm will sound when the upper fridge door is left open for 90 seconds and it will not stop
sounding until the door is closed.
Noises Inside the Unit!
You may notice that your unit makes some unusual noises. Most of these are perfectly normal,
but you should be aware of them!
These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling system. It has
become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will
not affect the performance of your unit. This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the
refrigerant around the system.
Tips for Keeping Food in the Unit
• Cooked meats/fishes should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats/fishes to avoid
bacterial transfer. Keep raw meats/fishes in a container which is large enough to collect
juices and cover it properly. Place the container on the lowest shelf.
• Leave space around your food, to allow air to circulate inside the compartments. Ensure all
parts of the unit are kept cool.
• To prevent transfer of flavours and drying out, pack or cover the food separately. Fruit and
vegetables do not need to be wrapped.
• Always let pre-cooked food cool down before you put in the unit. This will help to maintain
the internal temperature of the unit.
• To prevent cold air escaping from the unit, try to limit the number of times you open the
doors. We recommend that you only open the doors when you need to put food in or take
food out.
Preparations for Freezing
• Use quality food and handle it as little as possible. Freeze food in small quantities as it freezes
faster, takes less time to defrost and enables you to control the quantity you need better.
• Leave cooked food to cool completely. Chill food before freezing if possible.
• Consider how you will want to cook the food before freezing it.
• Don’t freeze food in metal containers if you may want to microwave it straight from the
freezer.
• Use special freezer bags, freezer film, polythene bags, plastic containers, and aluminium foil
(heavy duty grade only). If in doubt, double wrap your food. Don’t use aluminium foil for
acidic foods, e.g. citrus fruits. Don’t use thin cling film, glass, or used food containers without
cleaning.
• Exclude as much air from the container as possible. You could buy a special vacuum pump
which sucks excessive air out of the packaging.
• Leave a small amount of air space when freezing liquids to allow expansion.
• You can use the space in the freezer most efficiently if you freeze liquids
(or solids with liquids, e.g. stew) in square blocks. This is known as
“Preforming”. Pour the liquid into a polythene bag which is inside a square
sided container. Freeze it, and then remove it from the container and seal
the bag.
15
CIFF7015_IB_RC_170329_grace.indd 15 29/3/17 11:43 am
Never re-freeze anything that has been defrosted out unless you cook it again, to kill off harmful
bacteria. Never re-freeze defrosted shellfish. Re-seal packs properly after removing items. This
prevents drying or freezer-burn and a build up of frost on any remaining food.
• Label your frozen foods as they will look the same when in frozen state. Use special fridge
freezer tapes, labels and pens with different colours. This allows you to easily organise and
to effectively use the freezer. Write the contents and date; otherwise the frozen food might
exceed the storage time and this could cause food poisoning. Please refer to your food
packaging for the recommended storage time.
• You may also add the weight and cooking notes, e.g. “defrost first”, “cook from frozen” and
keep a separate log of what is in each drawer. This will save opening the door and searching
around unnecessarily.
Defrosting Frozen Food
1. Take the frozen food out from the freezer compartment and uncover the frozen food. Let
it defrost at room temperature. Don’t forget that defrosting in a warm area encourages the
growth of bacteria and low temperature cooking may not destroy dangerous bacteria.
2. Drain off and throw away any liquid lost during defrosting.
3. Always make sure there are no ice-crystals in the food before cooking, particularly with meat.
These crystals indicate that the food has not fully defrosted.
4. Cook food as soon as possible after defrosting.
5. Many microwaves and ovens have a defrost setting. To avoid bacterial build up, only use
these if you intend to cook the food immediately afterwards.

Cleaning
Defrosting
Frost may build up in the freezer compartment after the unit has been used for a period of time.
Scrape away the frost using a plastic scraper (not included).
We recommend that defrosting should be carried out when the frost layer builds up to 10 mm.
Choose a time when the stock of frozen food is low, follow these procedures:
1. Take out the food, turn the unit off at the mains supply and leave the door open. Ideally, the
frozen food should be put into another freezer. If this is not possible, wrap the food in several
sheets of newspaper or large towels and then a thick blanket to keep it cool.
2. Place a dry towel on the edge of the compartment shelf. Scrape away the frost using a plastic
scraper. Defrosting the remaining frost can be speeded up by placing a bowl of hot water
inside the freezer compartment and closing the door. As the solid frost loosens, scrape it
away with the plastic scraper.
3. When defrosting is complete, clean your unit’s interior and exterior.
Cleaning the Interior and the Exterior of the Unit
• Remove all the shelves, drawers and salad bin before cleaning.
• Wipe the inside of the unit with a weak solution of bicarbonate soda and then rinse with
warm water using a sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry before replacing the shelves and
drawers.
• Use a damp cloth to clean the exterior, and then wipe with a standard furniture polish. Make
sure that the door is closed to prevent the polish from getting on the magnetic door seal or
inside the unit.
• The grille of the condenser at the back of the unit and the adjacent components can be
vacuumed using a soft brush attachment.
Do not use a metal or sharp instrument to scrape away the frost, nor should you use any electrical
appliances to aid defrosting.

Maintenance
Changing the Internal Light
1. Before replacing the light bulb, always switch off
the unit, then disconnect the mains supply.
2. Remove the screw of the light bulb cover.
3. Remove the old light bulb by unscrewing in an
anti-clockwise direction.
4. Replace with a new light bulb.
5. Refit the light bulb cover. Reconnect the unit to
the mains supply and switch on the unit.
Care When Handling / Moving the Unit
Hold the unit around its sides or base when moving it.
Servicing
The unit should be serviced by an authorised engineer and only genuine spare parts should be
used. Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the unit yourself. Repairs carried
out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunction. Contact a qualified
technician.
Switching O for Long Periods of Time
When the unit is not in use for a long period of time, disconnect it from the mains supply, empty
all food and clean the unit, leaving the door ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.
Condensation
Condensation may appear on the outside of the unit. This may be due to a change in room
temperature. Wipe off any moisture residue. If the problem continues, please contact a qualified
technician for assistance.
Disposal
Old units still have some residual value. An environmentally friendly method of disposal will
ensure that valuable raw materials can be recovered and used again. The refrigerant used in the
unit and insulation materials require special disposal procedures. Ensure that none of the pipes
on the back of the unit are damaged prior to disposal.
Up to date information concerning options of disposing of your old unit and packaging from
the new one can be obtained from your local council office.
When disposing of an old unit break off any old locks or latches and remove the doors as a
safeguard.
